Very nice man! I had mine down to 29.4 lbs before I put on my DH wheelset for Mammoth. Now it's 30.7 lbs in DH trim. I see from the sign and your fav trail, your a So Bay rider. I've been riding Del Cerro for 30 years. Back then we could ride whatever we wanted and we made most of the trails up there. Maybe I'll see you up there some time.

Great weight for a Chilco. The Derby carbon wheels are bulletproof and can handle all DH, now come in 26 since you are a 26er for life (I was there once too! Hahaha)...

Yea Del Cerro was fun. I haven't been up there in quite some time. Trail closures and booby traps center trail suck. Beautiful place though, I will be back soon regardless...

Yea, I've been on the Derby site. The 40's look sick. I might have to drop some coin and get some. Wide carbons ride so nice. Light, strong and stiff. Mine are 33 wide and I really love them, but I'd like to try some 40's. Every now and then, you can still hit up Bad Lands or Grand Canyon when the coast is clear.

Haha, cool man. Changed my post to Uzzi! I remember seeing you jump that drop to flat at the bottom of badlands (I think)...

LOL, it is a great weight for a Chilco too! And I think that drop to flat was at the bottom of Telephone Pole, (legit). And my Avi is the old Ski Jump on my Nomad. Bummer they planted cactus all over that so it's un rideable now.

Some of you guys don't know the meaning of the term "retro."

I'm so "Old School" that I was a member of this site in '99, but have no idea what my email, username or address was at the time.
I got into Motocross in '01 and out of MTB. Had a kid 3 years ago, now, at 46, I'm ready to get back into the sport.

Hi all,

Just thought I would share my new bike.

So far I have only changed the seat post, stem, and handlebars. I have ordered a pair of 40mm Nextie Rims with the AM layup with an estimated weight of 440g. I am thinking of using Shimano XT hubs with sapim double butted spokes for the build. I will also be installing my Specialized IR and Zee/NW 1X10 setup when I stop being lazy.

It has not seen trail yet due to a sprained ankle, but I am hoping to change that this weekend.
